Jaguar F-TYPE Prototype to Make Public Debut at Goodwood

A development prototype example of Jaguar's new sports
car, the F-TYPE, is set to make its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of
Speed.

Utilising Jaguar's industry-leading knowledge of
all-aluminium construction, the F-TYPE will launch as a two-seater convertible
with the focus uncompromisingly on delivering driver reward.

The F-TYPE will be driven up the famous Goodwood Hill by
Jaguar's Head of Vehicle Integrity, Mike Cross.

Powered by a supercharged V6 or V8 engine, the F-TYPE is
currently undergoing development prior to going on sale mid-2013. Taking on the
most challenging roads, extremes of temperature and the harshest environments, the
F-TYPE is being thoroughly tested ahead of its launch.

Adrian Hallmark, Global Brand Director, Jaguar Cars
commented; 'Goodwood Festival of Speed is focused around the dynamic hill runs
where the public can see, hear and smell the cars - this is why we have chosen
it as the place to showcase an F-TYPE prototype. The development programme is
progressing with vigour and we look forward to showing the world the F-TYPE in
production form later this year.'

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is this year themed around
'Young Guns - Born to Win', celebrating drivers, riders, designers and
engineers.

The Kelley Blue Book has included the 2012 Audi TT Roadster and 2012 Audi A5 Cabriolet among the top 10 roadtrip convertible of the year 2012. The presence of these names in the aforementioned list is on the account of their unequalled performance, their distinctive style and excellent refinement. The extraordinary handling and the sporty features of the Audi TT Roadster aided it in making to the nominations. Powering this solid looking car is 2.0 liter TFSI engine that is way too high on the fuel efficiency aspect. The Audi A5 Cabriolet is the sole car of its segment that is enriched with a Quattro all wheel drive. The engine doing duty in the A5 is the 2.0-liter TFSI petrol engine that is capable o pumping out a peak power of 211 HP and a peak torque of 258 lb/ft.Reva Car Prices in India
